Liz Truss is a devoted follower of UK fashion… Just like her idol Margaret Thatcher
- Truss, 47, has taken it upon herself to mirror Mrs Thatcher’s most talked-about outfits
- Her blue pencil dress in last week’s debate against Sunak cost around £200
- Truss is also a fan of London designer Winser, high street chains LK Bennett and Whistles, as well as The Fold
The wardrobe of her idol Margaret Thatcher was filled with clothes of British brands.
And now incoming Prime Minister Liz Truss is literally following suit – staying true to British designers too as she dresses to impress on her journey to No.10.
Mrs Thatcher’s most talked-about outfits, including her royal blue suit, were by Aquascutum – a label she remained loyal to throughout her reign. Ms Truss, 47, often turns to high street chain Karen Millen.

For last week’s BBC debate, she – like Mrs Thatcher – opted for a royal blue number, a pencil dress priced at around £200. Also last week, she posed in the Houses of Parliament in a green number with a gold chain belt.
And the day before she also wore the label, sold by Ms Millen in 2016 – this time an orange dress.
She is also a fan of London designer Winser, wearing their purple £185 Grace Miracle dress as she met Tory members at Fontwell Racecourse in West Sussex.
High street chains LK Bennett and Whistles, plus new website The Fold, are her other favourites.
